Sierra Abbott's Mission

 Hello everyone,  Look for the link to a super cute video with the picture at the end of this post This week had its ups and down. One day we went to so many homes and no one was home. That day our only person we were teaching texting says that he does not want to meet with us anymore... so fun. I guess this makes me a real missionary now!  Also today is the first snow of the season!   This week had some hard times but there are Angels on this side of the veil! My comp being one of them! The elders we ward share with are literally the best people on the planet and know exactly what to say when I needed it. So glad their car had a flat...haha inside joke of myself.  People are so important! There was one sister who told me things I needed to hear in Palmyra and her words have stuck out to me so many times! Also my Bishop back home has told me important things that has helped me just when I needed them and been such a wonderful example in my life. Of cou...

Hello all sorry super quick,  MIRACLES ARE REAL!!! One day this week my comp and I were outside of our apartment waiting for a friend. While we were waiting for our friend this couple came up to us and one of them is an inactive member or a coming back member and the other is her bf. They came up and like Sisters! She was like this is my bf and we talked about the church. He wants to be baptized!!! But first he has to take the missionary discussions before to learn about it. Awww!!!!! He knows like nothing but we gave him the first lesson! It went pretty good!  I gave my first baptism invite!! It was a soft one without a date but he said YES!!! She said they have to figure out some things before he can be baptized but AWWW!!! Also so cool! All the people here love God which is always good!

October 12, 2020 Hello, These past week has been crazy! I left my new home in Palmyra NY and came to Columbia MO! It's been an adjustment but it's been really good!  For all my HISTORIC SITE SISTERS- SISTER BEVINS IS IN MY DISTRICT! And Sister Brown and Sister Miner are in my zone!! (All of these sisters where at the historic sites with me and are amazing)!! Also random thing- being at the historic sites we had our own church and sacrament and stuff. So... I went to real church for the first time since Covid-19 started and when BYU kicked us out. So it was weird!! But good.  Missouri is so amazing! I actually love so many things here! A couple of times random people have walked up to us and started talking about how good God is! Crazy!!!  Also my comp!!!! So incredible!!!! Her name is Sister Miller from South Jordan. She just finished training and now she is training me! So funny thing I have been out on a mission longer than her!  I love her and she i...
